Lawyers of Do Kwon received $7 million prior to the collapse of Terra

Do Kwon, the CEO of Terraform Labs, sent Kim & Chang, a prominent South Korean law firm, 9 billion won ($7 billion) just before the stunning collapse of the Terra ecosystem, according to South Korean prosecutors. 

According to KBS News, Kwon’s choice to pay millions of dollars to the law firm was viewed by prosecutors as a planned action that reportedly pointed out his awareness of the approaching collapse and anticipated legal issues.

The information, in the opinion of the prosecution, will be helpful in the continuing fraud case. In addition, Kwon and Terraform’s former CFO, Han Chang-joon, was met by Kim & Chang’s attorneys during their trip to Montenegro.

Kwon was previously detained at the airport in Podgorica, Montenegro, after attempting to board a flight to Dubai using forged documents. Both American and South Korean officials have requested Kwon’s extradition since his detention. The court has not yet made a decision, though.

What have the prosecutors discovered?

On April 7, it was announced that Kwon was under suspicion by South Korean prosecutors of converting illicit profits from Terra to Bitcoin. Binance was asked by the prosecutors to stop all withdrawal requests related to Kwon.

Illicit assets connected to Terraform Labs co-founder Kwon and his accomplices have been found to reach 414.5 billion won ($314.2 million). Out of this, Kwon is said to be directly connected to around 91.4 billion won ($69 million).

It seems like Do Kwon anticipated the collapse and made arrangements for the same. What do you think about this?
